Benzema We want to win the Champions League again

Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema was one of the heroes in the 5-2 demolition of Liverpool at Anfield in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie. The Frenchman scored two goals, and after the match he said that everyone in the team wants to lift the trophy again in the tournament.

"It was an important night for us and I want to dedicate this victory to the late honorary president Amancio. It is for him. We played with character, we scored a lot of goals and showed that we want to win the Champions League again. That's how we got this wonderful game that he was nice to us on the pitch and to the people watching him.

Yes, we started the match badly, we knew that the Anfield fans would put us under pressure. After the first 15 minutes, however, you saw the real face of Real Madrid. Football at this level is difficult. They started better, but it was a big game and we were ready for it," Benzema said.
